At Incremental Architecture we see ourselves as ‘community architects’ - local, people focussed, and designing at eye level. From our studios in Bristol and Wales, we design homes, buildings and places that use resources with care, make room for community, and enhance the vibrancy of local identity.

Architects designing a better shared future

We split our projects into 4 programmes ↓

Adaptive Reuse

Transforming a derelict 1860s coach factory into a phased, revenue-generating community owned ecosystem featuring urban farming and incubator hubs. The project is undergoing a phased construction process, a strategic approach to building control, and reuse of materials locks carbon into existing building fabric.

“Incremental has developed original practical and deliverable solutions to challenges we face as a community and pushed us to aspire and prioritise areas we hadn’t before.”

Hannah Sloggett, Nudge Community Builders

“Incremental enabled us to get a real picture of the challenges and opportunities for the Fort and its surrounding areas. They produced visuals of the three development stages for the site, showing its potential and how it could become viable and ensure it is saved for the future generations.”

Virginie Whittaker, Tourism and Heritage Manager, Gravesham Council
